Thank you Very much to Goatman, and Art. My 1980 242 is Running. I connected the return line(which was found plugged with a bolt and hose clamp),to the return fitting at the top of the sending unit. Then gave a shot of starting fluid in the air intake, as suggested, and WOW. It started and ran , smoothed out and sounds pretty good.I could see when I went to change the in-tank pump, that there was a recently installed New gas tank on the car, the bottom is under-coated, but the top half is bright silver colored galvanize. With a couple of fasterner bolts not installed. So, someone had been there ,not knowing what there doing. I've been poking around with this car since the begining of August. Take a look at Bric Pix dated Aug. 10th for a picture of my now runing 242. Thanks to Everyone for your time and advise. Joe
